^ don't try and cockblock, i was here first

[Steady_One_S13]

Whoa... you got work to do.

Project: save me new owner.

[S13Joe]

You have 1 hell of a project on your hands. Good luck with it.

Thanks alot man, its really not that bad at all though. I removed everything that needs to be replaced today (I think) and I have all the parts that need to be replaced already besides the lower control arm (I think thats what its called). I'm just waiting to find someone with that part and then put everything in.

Also, there have been NO snapped bolts so far, thank god.

I may need some help on removing the broken axle out of the hub though, she doesn't want to budge. Anyone have any tips?

[MastaYu]

Save her.

You have your work cut out for you.

One Love,

Ghasty

[hbpignosePA]

You just want the interior pieces! Haha I love those type of seats (fabric)!

Good luck with the rust man. Buy a lot of wire wheels and the paint that turns rust into primer.

nah i love my interior... im almost done w/ it;

looks like the previous owner went a little drift crazy and slid into a curb at @ 100. all of that rust is definately not good, but to get your ish straight, looks like you'll just need the lca.

[Dill_XD]

Yeah that's a CV boot clamp, just ordered a CV boot. You wont need a new one as he said.

dirtyghetto, sorry for the mini thread jack, but i think that i might have seen you in pa here, you said that you were recently down here in your miata haha?

Any pics of it?

[S13Joe]

Not my Miata but my friends, looks like this:

I was around philly and mostly in exton.

Has konig wheels on it too. The top is also a tan color.

[stylepointzz]

oh alright, i saw this miata out by me on the highway that i never saw before. it was slammed on nice wheels, ect. i thought it might have been you

[S13Joe]

Did a little more work today, still just removing things that I missed and fixing/cleaning things. Got a little problem though, the car has a factory alarm (I'm guessing its factory because its an SE model and has a Nissan alarm remote.) well, whenever I press the lock button it locks then unlocks... Does anyone have any personal experience with these? I'm probably just going to rip it out because I have other security features but I'm curious if this has happened with anyone else.

I no longer need the LCA too, thanks to White Comet. BTW, I'm going to the post office today before school so you will have payment within a few days.

Just for s***s and giggles too:ANDMy friends 2nd gen RX-7. He just put it on the road after having it sit in the garage for 4 years. I love it and I thought that I would share.

[S13Joe]

The clear turn signals in the 1st picture on the 1st page will also be put up for sale soon. $30 shipped, so if anyone wants them let me know on here or my e-mail is [email protected], no paypal at the moment though.

[S13Joe]

Soooo... Any advice on the alarm problem? Does anyone know where the factory alarm is located? I think its making the power locks f*** up and its also making it hard to start the car. I go to start it sometimes and the locks just go crazy when i turn the key.

[White Comet]

not a bad fc but i hate the wheels. what all is done to it? and series 4 or 5?

[S13Joe]

I'm not a fan of them either but he seems to like them, he bought the car with them too about 4 years ago. I think its an S4, not sure though. It was originally the T2 engine but funds ran low so its just the stock NA now out of another RX-7 he used to have, im pretty sure it just has exhaust. Have any pictures of your fc? And help with the alarm?

[White Comet]

yeah i got some decent pics of my fc and i have no idea on the alarm good luck though

[S13Joe]

Well everything has been replaced for a few days now, I've been driving it everyday and its horrible. I've replaced everything that was bent besides the strut which is barely bent, I'm really not sure what else to do because there is only few things it can be, working on the side of my house with my lack of tools is becoming a problem as well. Some recent pics of it now:

Didn't feel like taking the wheel off for a good picture but you get the idea.

And this is how it now sits. The primer is just there to cover bare metal, it had some nice rust that i had to grind out, don't worry my body work isn't that bad...

Well, I came across a pretty nice deal. I found a rolling shell with everything in it besides the engine, trans is still there also. Its a 92 so it has the KA24DE trans which will bolt right up to the KA24E, correct? Anyways, if all goes well I should have this shell by monday and I will update with pictures. The shell would also be my 4th 240sx and I will be parting out this coupe after I deside what I need and what I don't need. If anyone needs anything let me know, thanks.

[S13Joe]

Also thanks to White Comet for the LCA.

[White Comet]

glad i could help . to answer your question, yes the trans are interchangable and as far as the way the car feels, did you get an alignment after replacing all those suspension arms?

as far as the shell goes, sounds nice. the shell i have now is also my 4th s13

[S13Joe]

No I haven't gotten an alignment yet but the way the car feels is far beyond and alignment. Its actually quite saddening to be honest, I really wanted to finish this thing but it doesn't look like its going to happen. Anyways, yeah I think the subframe may actually be f***ed. As crazy as it sounds... for example the mounting points for the LCA is bent and torn, when metal is torn that gives me a bad sign. I'm not sure what to do but any advice is helful.

[White Comet]

i would try replacing the subframe then. but if you ditching this car for a shell i wouldn't bother.

[S13Joe]

There ya go. I would rather not ditch it for a shell but due to my lack of tools and space/shelter I think I'm going to have to do it.

[Rawrvasour]

Still pretty good for $360

[S13Joe]

Found a crazy clean roller. Everything is there besides the engine so I'm parting out this coupe.zer...speed

I will update tomorrow once I go pick it up, I'm pretty excited, its rediculously clean. NO RUST.
